[@scruffybearbreaks8774]

Why blame Keefe, who happens to be one of the best coaches in the league. The real one to blame is the GM...he had all year to replace the antique defence and goaltending. How many defensemen do we have that is under 30 years of age. Most of our defense should be retired. For several years the leafs have gone after backup goalies...Freddie Anderson, Jack Campbell, and Ilya Samsonov. They were back up goalies for a reason. Primarily because all those teams had goalies better than the backups they gave us.

[@Puckhog]

@@scruffybearbreaks8774 Keefe is not one of the best coach in the league, he's one of the worse, he's just been given really good core players players and a great one. If he's one of the best, how come he can't get by the first round for 8 years, I realize they beat Tampa last year, but they were lucky, Tampa outplayed them. He gets out coached all the time in the playoffs and during the regular season.

[@CheeseWizzard16]

Leaving Robertson in over Dewar makes no sense to me. The only reason this guy is in the NHL is because if he's GIVEN the puck he could score. Who on the 4th line is going to get him the puck? That line with Dewar had some chemistry going and he's more suited for a 4th line role than Robertson. This was a poor coaching decision imo

[@lisacarter302]

[@garryleblanc4002]

Keefe is finished as coach and though Marner and his millions should be dealt in the summer, not sure if any team would want a player who is afraid of his own shadow in the playoffs. Tavares will stay no matter what he loves being Toronto's captain and will never waive his no move contract. Toronto will stay among the top teams during the regular season yet stagnant come playoff time. I've been a die hard Leafs fan since the days of Paul Henderson, I'll still be cheering instead of booing them, but for better playoff success, lots of changes need to be made.

Look no further than the shit coaching. Any half decent coach would be changing things up on the fly if they aren't working. He doesn't load his lines up when he needs to. He's stayed with the Domi, Bert, Matthews line even though it lost the luster it had when Mitch went down. Since the playoffs started.

There is almost 400 people in the Toronto area for each seat in the Arena. There are many outside of that area that will make the trip in to see a game. There are people who will travel long distances to see a game (especially a playoff one) There is a waiting list to become a season ticket holder.. There will always be someone to take the place of anyone who decides to boycott. I’ve been a fan for over 40 years. I’ve been to 4 games. One was a playoff game in 2002 and I paid $280 then, that was 22 years ago. I could get from my couch to a seat in the arena, without going outside because of the subway system attached to my building, in 15 to 20 minutes. Super easy and I’m a huge fan and I have money but I’ve only been to 4 games and I haven’t been to one in over 10 years. Ive wanted to see a collective empty arena protest but it will never happen.

Champs Vs Trannys..

[@jedmackay5346]

They’ve had all year to fix the PK and it still stinks. And it’s why we’ll lose this series - along with the anemic PP.

[@paulthompson8793]

Yep, all of that is on Keefe and he hasn't done anything to fix it for months now. Absolutely killing them this series.

[@johnnyDs82]

The Leafs just wasted the prime years with this core on Sheldon Keefe!

[@gianlucad8003]

Keefe said he didn't sense any frustration, was he there or what?

[@generalimlerith8356]

When he says there’s a lot of belief in here you know even he doesn’t believe that line lol

Love the funeral director description. Can someone show some emotion !!! Missing Wendel Clark....I don't care about how much money players make, not my cash. But if you got no heart DON'T PUT ON A LEAFS JERSEY !!

4:28 "we're grown men." Mitch Marner 2024. Clip that. Hahahahahahahahaha 🤣

[@ericyuan9718]

Holy fuck, that's the last person who should say such a thing. Always knew Marner was a narcissistic, lazy, whiney choke job, but also this delusional??

[@thesnowshowondemand8786]

All our super stars are embarrassing…. It’s so annoying to watch all the talent we have do nothing…. It’s all the guys making low money as far as the nhl goes that do all the work! This is the best team I’ve watched of the leafs on paper but the worst in actually playing…. The stress levels watching our team play is insane…. The amount of money I’ve spent or anyone else has spent to go see these fools make a joke of us and our money! Yeah I think the fan base is fed up….

[@jamesnewman48]

I feel for keefe. he did not give away these contracts. the top players looked like they just did not care. clearly he has no say on who plays and who sits.

[@thesnowshowondemand8786]

Marner is a baby I can’t stand his interviews…. All he does is cry and make excuses… all he wants to do is make it seem like the media is the problem nah it’s you kid….

[@mcdavid4606]

Matthews got in a fight with Keefe, you can see them in the background arguing on the bench. This was immediately following the 3-0 goal when the Leafs were getting booed. Then they announced he's missing the 3rd period with "food poisoning" and will miss the 3rd period but my gut is that there is something more there

[@Supkem77]

They were better without Matthews.

[@automatik6223]

@@Supkem77 they were but it could also be that boston was getting tired. they played hard the first 2 and leafs couldnt match any type of intensity. this is why i stopped watching the leafs when they lost to NEW jersey when i was in gr 7. fast forward im 37 have watched the last 4 playoff runs and im starting to literally not give a fuck about this team again. what a shit show. prob why i only watch the playoffs. but i guess i should watch reg season and skip playoffs.

[@clifflayne9073]

@@automatik6223 : do what I do, watch the highlights after the game on the internet. Sat behind the Leaf's bench for the 67 finals, so at least I've seen one cup. Will never see another. Haven't watched a full Leaf's game, either live or on TV since Gretzky killed us in LA.

[@rakzeyreeb5000]

marner needs to go

[@WalkableBulb905]

Gardiner, Andersen, Holl, Brodie and now Marner. Always one players fault for this fan base. Where has the rest of the team been? Where has Matthews been? The offense is a problem in the playoffs, which is pathetic considering who we have. Can't wait to see who fans blame next year

[@DoubleDOwnage]

I understand your sentiment and yet I don't think even you can believe he is worth 11M with his performance through the season and playoffs.

[@ifedero3762]

Sheldon Keefe needs to go. No strategy, no structure, no accountability. Embarrassing.

[@tyrous1743]

I would be so upset to be a Leafs fan right now, not that the Leafs lost tonight, and are one loss away from being eliminated in the first round, again, for the last 5 of 6 appearances, but because of how little passion, urgency, and just straight up responsibility these players, and the coach, is showing during these interviews. No frustration? We all saw it, but apparently there was none. You didn't come out flat, despite getting only two shots in the first 10 minutes of play? You got to stick with it? Stick with what, the same no emotion, no urgency play that we have seen for 3 of the 4 games? Show some #$%@ng emotion.

[@zNaux]

- “You guys came out flat” Riley “I don’t think we came out flat” You had 2 shots halfway through the 1st and were down 3 goals going into the 2nd 😭😭😭

[@doublesnowseven]

I roared

[@zascorpusa]

Trade every Leaf and rebuild. Fire Keefe immediately. Enough is enough. This is totally unacceptable!!!! AM34 just quit on team trade the bum. They should rip the leafs jersey off Samsonov so he never wears it ever again

[@s.m.4460]

Where was Nostrils, game 2's Mr. Clutch? 😅

[@travisstokes4692]

Is Sheldon watching the same game we are at home?? Mid series coaching change?

[@klausschraud7303]

Well if the GM doesn’t do a complete overhaul the core 4 are not good enough come playoffs goaltending is not good enough defence brutal wonder what would happen if the building was 1/2 empty stop feeding the money machine

[@SillySongs4Everyone2001]

Changes have to be made after this series. The leafs intensity and urgency was lacking this entire game. The home loss record should be questioned too. But I’ve said it many times this season Keefe has to go. If Treliving keeps him then this entire organization can go F””K themselves.
